Customer Reviews Hoka Solimar

I use ad a everyday walking shoe. It's comfortable.

I am in love with HOKA and can't wait to buy another pair. I love the way I'm balanced when walking.

I was waiting for a plush shoe with the stability for bad ankles. This shoe also helps my bad back with the cushion and stability. Wish there was a total black one or a shoe a little dressier with the same qualities to wear with slacks.

This shoe seemed to run a little bigger than my Clifton 7's.

As a big Hola fan for years, I figured it was time for a new pair as I wear mine near daily to the gym classes I take. Love them for their big cushioning with my high impact moves. These are not super cushioned as my last pair is. Big disappointment. Won't be wearing them for high impact classes. They're ok for no impact classes (boring).

Very light, good support. Hokas are recommended by my foot & ankle surgeon as I have flat feet. Would definitely buy again.

After an October knee replacement and reading other's reviews, I jumped in. I've never had a sneaker that I was so quickly on love with, ever. It's been just perfect for recovery.

Very comfortable. The first pair I ordered were too narrow so I ordered a wide and they fit perfectly.

I don't have to think twice about being well- supported while working out at the gym in these. They're perfectly cushioned, breathable, and lightweight. The size seems to be just a little bigger (longer) than I would expect though.

I really love these but unfortunately they're just a little too narrow. I wear a 10.5 and the length was perfect but they felt a little too snug on the sides of my feet :( I wish they made the white pair in a wide size!

I love Hoka shoes. I used to have issues with my feet hurting after long walks, but I don't have that problem now that I wear Hoka shoes. I wish there were better color choices though. Black with a splash of color would be my preference.

This was my first pair of Solimar. I have run in the Bondi, Rincon, and Arahi. I gor the same size that i have for all my Hokas, 8.5. I have used these on a few outdoor pavement runs and they are nice and light. Cushioning and support are decent enough for my 5 mile runs and I am a slight supinator. I noticed that rhe laces get loose at the top by the end of my runs, so I have to use the extra hole to heel lock the laces. I got a second pair of Solimar as a Christmas gift, so I started using the first pair for gym workouts. The support for stepping movements isn't adequate for side lunges, since the top fabric is pretty thin and unstructured. I would not recommend these shoes for HIIT workouts where you have to pivot quickly. Otherwisec it's a pretty shoe, and has more the Nike sleek look to it, as opposed to Hoka's traditional clunky look.

Excellent running shoes and they look so amazing! They are super comfortable and the first day I wore them I was getting compliments! Would definitely recommend to my friends. The only reason I gave a 4/5 is because the sneakers are white and do get dirty easily.

I normally wear Clifton 8. I thought I try these for recovery. I wore around house, not enough support for my feet.

THESE HAVE BEEN AND CIONTINUE TO BE THE BEST SHOES IVE OWNED IN A MAYBE NY WEHOLE LIFE AND I AM ALMOST 72M THE PRIOBLEM IS THAT THEE IS NOTHIG THAT I CAN SEE THAT WOULG=D ALLOW ME TO SEE WHAT THE MODEL NYMBER IS OR MAYBE T-YOU HAVE RECORDS F TE FIRST PSIR THAT I OURCHASED THEN THERE SARE THESE.....PLEASE LOOK IT UP AND GET BASCK TO N=ME CAYSE I EOULD BUY 2-3 MI0ORE PAIRS FRIB TOU THANJ TOU

These are by far the most comfortable shoes ever. I now have 5 pair , I may have a Hoka addiction. I get so many compliments. Huge fan

Suffering with 1 year plus extreme plantar fasciitis, the Clifton model was a godsend. I bought the Solimar in black and prefer the minimalist design without visible logos that works with more of my outfits and non-gym clothes as I can only wear Hokas now. As others have noted, the tongue on this model can move a little to either side, so I just wear black socks with the black Solimar pair. It is not as cushiony as the Cliftons, so will probably add insoles as my plantar fasciitis causes pain wearing these on longer walks, when it rarely did with my Cliftons. I wish the Solimars felt as good on the bottom of my feet as the Cliftons, but don't want the super thick soles I personally think are too ugly to wear to office/out at night/etc. At least the Clifton design isn't as thick and ugly as other more extreme Hoka models. If you are in a lot of pain and can only buy one pair of Hokas, you probably want the Cliftons or a thicker sole model.

Great fit and comfort! Would love just a little bit of cushion.

Comfortable, light, but shoe laces are a bit hard to tie and untie. Also, they probably wouldn't be warm enough for temps around freezing.

Rave reviews at the gym so I decided to try a pair. I am a women's size 8.5, however, they felt too exact. Went up to a size 9 and they fit perfectly. SUPER comfy! The cushion is unmatched. Liked them so much bought another pair in a different color the very next day!

I use this sneaker for working out with my trainer in a gym. I am 70 years old and was looking for support and stability while working out. This show does both and is very comfortable as well. I did find this shoe runs big and followed recommendations to order a half size down and shoe fits perfectly. My regular size would have been to big.
